This dang hawk attempted to catch or caught the hen. Does not look like a promising outcome for her. Just another predator that’s underestimated in the struggles of a wild turkey!

This is a picture from my personal text camera that I got today.

Comes to us at midnight very clean.
It's perfect when it arrives and it puts itself in our hands.
It hopes we've learned something from yesterday."

Ain’t underestimated round here. It’s a no fly zone...

I watched a bald eagle circle a group of 16 hens several years ago in Macon county from a tree stand. The eagle finally dropped down and straight murdered one of the hens. It was nasty.

I had a hawk swoop down and hit my hen decoy last season. That thing came out of no where and when he knocked the hen over he just stood there for a second like WTH! No doubt if she had been a real hen she would have had no chance.

Might be too much banding on the tail. I would say a red shouldered,

You ever seen a democrat sit down with a whole chicken?

Hawk gonna eat that turkey the same way. Tear it apart one piece at a time.

Chuck has nothing to do with that. Migratory Bird Treaty Act does though.
